Chapter 100 Sweet

When Gervis carried the jar of wine to the dining room, the smell of wine immediately filled the air. The maid Anna, Thomas and Yura couldn't help but twitch their noses and sniffed hard, their faces full of curiosity.

“This tastes so sweet!”

Several people couldn't help but feel this way.

Although the lord told them what kind of wine was brewed in the jar, it smelled more like a delicious drink and had no smell of alcohol at all. Anna and Yura had never had the chance to drink wheat beer, but Thomas, who came from Rose Castle, had the honor of tasting it several times and had smelled it countless times at banquets. The 'wine' that Gervis was talking about was completely different from the wine of Rose Castle.

You should know that Rose Castle's wheat beer is made from the finest wheat and is brewed by experienced brewers. Unlike those petty nobles, they do not add water to the beer after it is brewed in order to save money.

It's not that Thomas didn't believe Gervis, but he had never heard of anything other than wheat being used to make wine in the past hundred years, so Thomas was a little skeptical in his heart, wondering if the adults would mistake wild fruit drinks for alcohol.

Gervis didn't have time to care about what the people on the scene were thinking at the moment. After placing the jar steadily on the long table, Gervis looked inside the jar. However, due to the lack of light, he couldn't see anything. So Gervis said to Yura without turning his head, "Yula, help me get a spoon. A longer one."

"Yes, sir."

Yura did not dare to delay and quickly picked up a large spoon of suitable length from the cart beside him and carefully handed it to Gervis.

"Sir, here you go!"

"kindness."

Taking the spoon handed to him by Yura, Gervis quickly put the spoon into the mouth of the jar and scooped out a spoonful of wine.

When the spoon was used to scoop up the wine from the jar, Gervis' eyes lit up. He saw that the liquid in the spoon was purple-red and fragrant, and it was very transparent and did not look turbid at all.

"good!"

Gervis couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. The transparent color of the wine showed that the fermentation was successful. Then Gervis steadied the spoon and poured the wine into a clean glass.

Anna and the others were confused as to why Gervis was cheering alone. They all looked at the spoon in Gervis's hand with wide eyes. When they saw the purple-red wine, their eyes widened. They had never expected that the 'wine' made from wild fruits was so beautiful. Moreover, because of the stirring of Gervis' spoon, the fragrance from the jar became more intense. Smelling the sweet aroma, Anna and the others swallowed slightly.

After pouring the wine into the glass, Gervis couldn't wait to pick up the glass and bring it to his lips. As an ordinary person in his previous life, the most expensive wine Gervis had ever drunk was the domestic wine that cost hundreds of dollars a bottle at wedding banquets, which he drank with Sprite. Of course, he didn't have the habit of sobering up, as that was the privilege of the local tyrants.

Gervis took a small sip from the glass, smacked it a few times to check the taste. After all, it was his first time making wine, and he was afraid that if the taste was not right, he would spit it out if he drank too much.

Smacking his lips, Gervis' eyes suddenly lit up and he became excited. Without any hesitation, he brought the cup to his mouth again and took a sip.

"Okay, haha, I succeeded! Anna Thomas, your master, I am going to be rich!"

When it went into my mouth, the sweet taste of the wine instantly filled my mouth. It was not bitter or strange as I had worried about. And I don’t know if it was because the environment of this world was different from that of the earth, but the taste of the wine was even more mellow and sweet.

This made Gervis very happy. The only thing in this world was rotten wheat beer, which was incomparable to his wine.

"Come, Yura, bring three more cups. You can taste it and see how it tastes. Especially Thomas, do you think this wine will be popular with the nobles?"

The three of them were originally standing aside and watching Gervis enjoying himself, and they were already quite envious, especially when Gervis suddenly cheered and jumped for joy, which made them even more curious about the "wine" in front of them.

Thomas, in particular, had the experience of Gervis grilling golden oysters, and he was even more guessing what the juice would taste like.

That's right! Thomas still didn't want to believe that the purple-red liquid with a sweet smell was wine.

"Yes, sir!"

After hearing Gervis's instructions, Yura moved more quickly this time, temporarily forgetting Butler Thomas's teachings about the steadiness and elegance required of a maid, because she also eagerly wanted to taste the delicious food in the small jar in front of the lord.

Yura quickly took three cups and placed them on the long table. Gervis did not waste any time. After the cups were placed firmly, he used a spoon to scoop wine from the jar and poured it into several cups.

"My Lord, this is too stingy!"

This was the mental activity of the three people present, because they saw that the juice poured by Gervis into the cup only filled one-third of the cup, not even half a cup, and it was probably finished in two or three sips. On the contrary, the lord's own cup was already full again. Of course, this was just a slight thought, not even a complaint. The three people knew very well that this was made by the lord himself, and even being able to drink a drop was a blessing, and they certainly would not dare to have any complaints.

Gervis was not really stingy, but was doing it for the good of the three of them. After tasting the wine, Gervis found that the alcohol content was much higher than the beer in this world. He was worried that they would not be able to get used to it, especially Anna and Yura. He was afraid that the two maids would get drunk in one gulp, so he poured less.

"Come on, have a taste. Don't pour it all over your mouth. Be careful not to get drunk. I'll tell you how you feel later."

After all, Gervis is a time traveler. He drank a lot of various kinds of alcohol in his previous life and was already accustomed to wine. It was no surprise that he found it delicious. However, Anna and the other two were from this world and had never been exposed to these things before. They didn't know whether the taste of the wine could be accepted by the natives of this world. They could just give Gervis some suggestions.

In fact, Gervis was very glad that he was lucky enough to find the wild version of alien grapes. If it was wild sorghum, Gervis estimated that if he could brew sorghum wine, the choking alcohol content would be absolutely poisonous to people who had never come into contact with it. After all, it was too difficult to swallow, and it would definitely be a big problem if he wanted to promote it.

"Thank you for your gift, sir!"

The three of them got Gervis's permission and bowed to him respectfully. Then, they walked to the long table with great anticipation and picked up the glasses of wine. After holding the glasses, they did not taste them immediately. Instead, they retreated to a position further back than before, away from the long table. Then they stopped and carefully examined the wine in their hands. They kept the taboos of the long table in the castle in mind.

Seeing the actions of the few people, Gervis did not say anything. He picked up his glass from the long table, took a sip, and then looked at the few people, waiting for their reactions after tasting. Whether the wine suits the taste of this world or not will be known soon.

If something wants to be a big hit, the audience cannot be niche. Only by catering to the tastes of the masses can it become truly popular and make a lot of money. At this moment, Gervis couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
